How well do you know gymnastics?

I have a fair amount of knowledge when it comes to gymnastics because this

topic was also taught to me by my previous PE teacher back in my junior high school

days. That knowledge was expanded more thanks to my current PE teacher who has

taught us the history when it comes to gymnastics. I have known for a fact that it is a

sport that requires physical strength, agility, and sensory awareness to accomplish sets

of motions. Although I previously did not know that Kung Fu is also called Medical

Gymnastics up until now. Gymnastics has a lot of contributors from 1723 to 1858, most

notably Johann Basedow, who was a great instructor who organized and introduced

gymnastics to the school curriculum. Johann Friedrich Guts Muths, who is referred to as

the “Great Grandfather of Gymnastics”, also had a great contribution as he wrote a book

called “Gymnastics for the Youth” which contains information on how important it is to

learn gymnastics for youth.
